Notes to the Budget Statements

Operating Statement

Significant variations are as follows:

• government payment for outputs: the decrease of $0.874m in 1998-99 from originalbudget is mainly due to:

− the deferral of projects from 1998-99 to 1999-2000 ($1.462m) including the OlympicGames football projects, Centenary of Federation, Online and other informationtechnology projects; offset by

− revenue for AusIndustry projects carried over from 1997-98 to 1998-99 ($0.436m); and

− payout in 1998-99 of a bank guarantee for the Canberra Cannons ($0.3m).

In 1998-99 the estimated outcome for GPO in the operating statement is $0.173m lower thanin the cashflow statement. This is due to the net impact of cash received in advance foroutputs produced in 1998-99 ($0.436m), less cash received in advance for outputs to beproduced in 1999-2000 ($0.263m).

• government payment for outputs: the increase of $8.024m in 1999-2000 is mainly due to:

− the Very High Speed Train project proving process ($1.5m);

− establishment of a Gambling Project Fund ($0.5m);

− establishment of interactive gaming ($0.8m);

− one-off funding of increased costs associated with the collection of Territorial revenues($0.512m);

− initial Olympic security costs of $0.504m, with $3.176m in 2000-01;

− formation of the Independent Competition and Regulatory Commission ($0.4m);

− Centenary of Federation celebrations ($0.250m);

− funding for the Olympic Torch relay of $0.1m in 1999-2000 and $0.050m in 2000-01;

− deferral of priority projects from 1998-99 to 1999-2000 ($0.962m) including theCentenary of Federation, Online and other information technology projects;

− the net increase in funding of Olympic Football from the 1998-99 Budget ($3.445m),plus $0.500m deferred from 1998-99;

− funding for the promotion of Canberra, in the context of the lead up to the OlympicGames and the Centenary of Federation, including a $0.5m increase for 1999-2000provided in the 1998-99 Budget and the bringing forward of $0.5m funding from2000-01; and

− transfers from DUS representing the devolution of funding of registry, contract andpurchasing, publications and shopfront functions($0.431m); offset by

− transfers to InTACT mainly for accommodation ($1.440m);


− transfer of gaming, lotteries and racing functions to the ACT Gambling and RacingCommission ($1.059m);

− transfer of employment programs to DECS ($0.587m);

− savings identified within the department to assist the Government’s operating loss($0.8m); and

− a reduction of $0.507m relating to minor transfers, superannuation and savings onaccommodation and registry functions.

In 1999-2000 ongoing funding is provided for the continuation of the FAI Rally of Canberra($0.3m), and $0.350m for the Canberra National Multicultural Festival. The latter figureincludes an additional $0.040m provided in the 1999-2000 Budget over the 1998-99 Budget.

In 1999-2000 the GPO in the operating statement is $0.263m higher than in the cashflowstatement reflecting cash received in advance in 1998-99 for outputs to be delivered in1999-2000.

• user charges - non ACT Government: the decrease of $1.463m in 1998-99 from budget isdue to the finalisation of the transfer of BETARRIR to CMD;

• resources received free of charge: the increase of $0.8m in 1998-99 from budget is due toincreased legal costs;

• other revenue: the increase of $0.854m in 1999-2000 is mainly due to revenue receivedfrom other countries for pre-games training. These funds will be onpaid to contractorsproviding the support services; and

• operating expenses: the increase of $9.314m in 1999-2000 is mainly due to:

− the $5.216m in initiatives outlined above;

− an increase of $3.584m in the 1998-99 base forward estimates relating to 2000 OlympicFootball;

− the impact of deferral of funding from 1998-99 ($2.694m); offset by

− transfer of functions to ACT Gambling and Racing Commission; and

− savings ($0.8m) and minor transfers ($0.507m);

• grants and purchased services: the increase of $1.314m in 1999-2000 relates mainly topurchases from CTEC for the promotion of Canberra.

Statement of Financial Position

• net assets: the decrease of $6.326m in 1998-99 from Budget is primarily due to the BruceProperty Trust no longer being consolidated. The increase of $5.871m in 1999-2000 ismainly due to the 1999-2000 Capital Works program ($4.839m), and a $1m contribution tothe National Capital Authority for the construction of the ACT Promotion Centre atRegatta Point. In return, the Department will have use of the building for twenty years; and

• non current investments: in 1998-99 relate to the Government’s $12.3m investment in thenew Bruce Stadium.

− an adjustment of $0.183m relating to a review of the base following the transfer offunctions from BASAT;

• taxes, fees and fines: the increase of $17.267m in 1999-2000 is mainly due to parameterchanges, which include Consumer Price Index, Employment Growth and PopulationGrowth.
